Description

Mulligatawny soup means "pepper water," and curry is the particular ingredient that gives this incredible dish such a delicious flavor, or so I'm told. This old recipe was given to me long ago.

Ingreadient

½ cup chopped onion
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 carrot, diced
¼ cup butter
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons curry powder
4 cups chicken broth
½ apple, cored and chopped
¼ cup white rice
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast half - cut into cubes
1 pinch dried thyme
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup heavy cream, heated

Direction

Gather all ingredients.
Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add onions, celery, and carrot and sauté until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add flour and curry, and cook 5 more minutes, stirring frequently.
Add chicken broth, mix well, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes. Add apple, rice, chicken, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer until rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
Just before serving, stir in hot cream.
Serve and enjoy!
